So, idislikecispeople  (｡☉౪ ⊙｡) is a defacto cisperson who is appropriating transsexual issues. And Japanese emoticons.

Ehh, I talked to them for a bit, xir seemed relatively nice at the time, but I'm guessing they did something assholish recently.
They also said they grew up with some asshole family so I'm guessing they're unstable.

Gah that truscum concept is confusing.

All I can tell is they're massive weebadoos.

After some deliberation, I decided to put this here:

The Aftermath.
20,000 notes later—I have 250 messages waiting for me. I have about 300 disqus comments I haven’t looked at. My post is on reddit. Something called r/tumblrinaction. Men are saying that they are disappointed in me. That I drank the feminist Kool-aid.

To all those men mad at me, I’d like to tell you a little story. Couch your anger for just a second. You can yell at me more when I am finished.

My friend was at an evening establishment. A place with alcoholic beverages. A man approached and proclaimed his attraction to her physical features. He expressed a desire to court her. She informed him that she did not have interest in men. She enjoyed the company of other women. A detail she had no obligation to disclose, but she did anyway because she felt it would end the encounter.

He refused to believe her. He thought it a ruse.

As the night progressed he persisted, ignoring her sexuality and numerous rejections.

My friend walked out to her car in a dark parking lot.

He followed.

He confronted her yet again and expressed his wishes to have her.

Thankfully, he gave up and she made it home safely.

But damn… how freakin’ scary is that?

Seriously.

After hearing this story I searched through my brain trying to find a similar experience. Nothing came to mind. In my 32 years on this planet I have never experienced that kind of fear.

For her, that is one of many similar stories.

Many of my friends have similar stories. And some of them were not as lucky in the end.

Forget what rights you think you are not afforded. Forget that you are a “nice guy” who would never do that. This isn’t about that. This isn’t about you.

Why is it that she has so many of these stories and I have not one?

You speak of equality. Why do my stories not equal hers?

There is an issue here that needs to be addressed. It doesn’t matter if you are not one of these men. There are people in your man-o-sphere that need to know that this behavior is not acceptable. Perhaps you would be kind enough to let them know.

Okay, resume the yelling.

Let me tell you a story frogman. There was a friend of mine who was raped by a women who refused to take no after he repeatedly said he had a GF, she had at least 40 lbs on him, wasn’t much he could have done. When all was said and done she threatened to tell the cops he rapes her if he tried to tell anyone.

Another friend was physically and verbally abused and raped by an abusive girlfriend, and even by a man, she brought in, TO RAPE HIM.

Another friend of mine was publicly emasculated in front of his friends because he didn’t want to have sex with his girlfriend, what a fucking crime huh? Not wanting to fuck at every available time makes him not a real man right?

My cousin? Raped, just barely in his teens by a woman in her late twenties. But them male teenagers are just so horny he probably had it coming didn’t he?

Another friend was drugged, passed out unconscious, before being carried off and raped by two women. Oh wait, dat one was me. Add to that some sexual molestation by a baby sitter when I was a child.

I’ve had women call me gay for not being interested in them, I’ve been molested by women after telling them to leave me alone, had abusive girlfriends, creepy ass fucking stalkers, I’ve had prior bosses force me to get half naked for my paycheck.

All these stories, not one was taken seriously by the authorities, by friends, by women or society as a whole.

You can go fuck right the hell off with this erasing male victims bullshit so you can brown nose up to feminists. This white knight routine got your dick sucked for you at least yet? Hope it was worth throwing half the population under the bus for attempts at pity sex.

Yeah, way to ruin a good point with "fuk u feminizm!".

"All these stories, not one was taken seriously...."

Hey, you know whose fault that is?  MEN!

[davedan]

Magus: It's not men, it's society (specifically US society by the sounds of things but it is across a number of societies). There isn't a group of 6 men smoking pipes which make up "the Patriarchy" - although that would be kind of cool.

As for the response to Frogman: I don't know whether I am being too cynical but it sounds like bullshit too me. Unless female on male sexual assault is far more prevalent wherever/whenever this kid grew up, neither myself nor any of my male friends or relatives have any experiences remotely comparable. The fact that was what Frogman was getting at - rather than saying male victims don't exist  - and the sheer number of instances makes me suspicious. If it weren't bullshit (lying for the patriarchy - like lying for jesus) I would have expected him to say - that he has experiences like Frognman's friend and so do his friends and list them. That Frogman's lack of experience in this events is personal to him and not a product of his gender. So I am taking the post with the rather large bag of salt I carry my crackers in.

That looks like a Poe to me.

Her comments and responses to people (such as editing out the comparison to LGBT issues after she was called out) indicate that it's legit.

Could you explain the bad part to me?
I have a feeling I'm missing something in this.

There's a subset of "trans" people on tumblr who say you can be trans without feeling any sort of dysphoria about your body whatsoever, even though that's pretty much the defining characteristic of being trans.  They call other trans people who disagree with them "truscum", and accuse them of wanting to be cis like it's an insult, despite the fact that, yeah, that's the whole point of transitioning.  I think some of them also view being trans as some sort of special "other" gender.  Some apparently accuse trans people who want to transition as being "transphobic" and suffering from internalized cissexism.

This post is basically saying that, since "truscum" want to be cis and also that you must experience dysphoria to be trans, then they should already be viewing non-dysphoric trans people as cis, so logically the feeling of dysphoria is in their head and should stop feeling dysphoric, then they'd be cis like they wanted.  I'm pretty sure the second response is mocking the first one, saying that would be like telling depressed people to just be happy.

Huh. Funnily enough, I missed that aspect and got a different reading from the snippet. I identified the bolded sentence as sarcasm to demonstrate the absurdity. The second response would then miss that and take it seriously.
Poe's Law in action I guess. I was a bit confused by the first two sentences, but not knowing what 'truscum' is (I took it for a username) that was the most sense I managed to decipher.

A society which values masculinity over anything else tho.

A Song of Ice and Fire is fucking misogynistic! I mean, look at how the women are treated!

Look, there's a big difference between the setting being misogynistic and the story being misogynistic.

I'm pretty sure the men don't have it so great, either.  Westeros seems to be a shitty place to exist in.  I haven't actually seen the show or read the books though.
